Bio

Hello. I am Marle. I am a writer writing under various names and I do projects.

In the last 10 years, most of my work has been around refining and grasping my purpose, and the meaning of my work, and mastering my skills as a researcher and project manager. It has also been about trying to offer a different perspective on the role of citizens in facilitating the transition towards a sustainable system of consumption and production, inspiring people and guiding them in whatever mastery journey they were on. This blog has been appearing daily or weekly for almost a decade. My main inspiration for the creation of this blog is Seth's Blog. I was inspired by the simplicity of his outputs as well as the dedication and consistency. 

I've spent most of my professional life as a community builder in the charity and voluntary sectors. I also worked for local government and universities. I've also used my skills and abilities freelance for various starting companies focusing on sustainability, mental health, health and wellbeing as well as within the art and socially engaged art practices. Learn more about my projects (here).

I enjoy writing content for websites and building them (e.g. Leicester Fixers Eugenie Bitty Arts). I've written most blog posts on Quetzal and worked with graphic designers, website builders and volunteers to bring it all together. I also manage various Instagram and Facebook pages.

I enjoy collaboration and projects and ultimately discussing ideas that will inspire change. 

Enjoy the blog

Learning to repair - the pointless and wonderful

Receiving the appropriate support from friends, family, mentors is an important requirement to learn a new skill. Yet some skills can be simultaneously respected and looked down by our social circle. Knowing how to repair is the aggregation of many skills for which two conflicting messages are sent by those around us Why would you learn to repair when you can buy new? Isn't it wonderful to be able to repair any object coming your way? It is to ask what traits and characteristics someone has to pursue a passion/interests when the rest of the world appear at first to not be interested. It is to ask the type of environment that will nurture the inquisitive mind we all have to pursue against the odds something that appear pointless. Acquiring the skills to repair - both pointless and wonderful
